(This is a channeled post.)
Today’s topic is learning how to transcend the ego. The ego that we are referring to is something that is separate from your normal mind. Or it thinks it is separate. It is the renegade mind.
We need to talk about how to transcend the ego. It is not an easy task because the ego is very tricky. It knows how to deceive you into following it. It is a deceptive leader. It convinces you that you don’t know what is best for you. It convinces you that it knows what is best for you.
We can dispel the ego by one of two ways. The first way is to recognize it and don’t heed it. Don’t pay it any attention. When it starts telling you what to think or feel or do, you just recognize that that is your ego. You don’t need to do anything else.
This method is difficult because it’s difficult for most people to recognize their egos.
The second method is to look at your thoughts and notice that when you’re not at peace it’s because your thoughts are not peaceful.
This is easier than the first method because it’s easier to tell when you’re not at peace. So you can stop whatever you’re doing when you feel that you’re not at peace and tell yourself the following:
I am peace. This is not who I am.
